Trekking this summer: Jakhol to Sirga top

As a travel enthusiast, I have been always looking for Offbeat places, with calm and serene atmosphere away from bustling city. This winter we got chance to explore such a place called Jakhol, right in the middle of Govind National Park and Wildlife Sanctuary. For the nature lovers and trekkers, this place is a must visit place, with river Rupin flowing down the valley and snow on the mountain hills, abundance of flora and fauna.

Some of the very famous treks just start from near by like
Sankri-Taluka-Osla-Har-ki-dun (38 km)
Sankri-Taluka-Osla-Ruinsara Tal (40 km)
Naitwar-Himri-Droni-Rupin Pass-Sangla (60 km). (high-altitude difficult trek)
Ruinsara Tal-Yamunotri (20 km). (high-altitude difficult trek)

Thinking of trekking, What comes to ones mind is, trekking is not everyones cup of tea. Yes, to some extent. While we were in Jakhol, one of our objective was to defy this common theory. And we were quite successful in doing so. The answer to this beleif is why not doing a small trek, but yet enjoyable as a 4 or 5 day trek would be.

After the consultation with villagers, they took us to a small trek to Sirga top just 5 Kms from Jakhol village. Recommended to anyone who ever wants to do some light trek.

Entire trek is through thick cover of deodar trees and scenic beauty everywhere.

This summer, we plan to take nature lovers to this beautiful valley so get in touch with us at rakesh@travinfoindia.com.
